Banana Bread

Banana Bread - Rita Reviews

Today is my Banana Bread Recipe that shared backed in 2011. I must have been doing a lot of cooking and baking then. I swear it seems like I don’t now at all but I think what happens is I don’t post and share them as much anymore.

I love Banana Bread. I heat my slice back up just a little or cut it before it has completely cooled so that my butter will melt. I make this bread a lot during the fall months because to me there is just something soothing about it. ENJOY!

    Looks delicious! For some reason, I haven’t eaten banana bread in years (always used to get it at a bakery as a kid) but you are tempting me to try out this recipe. I’ve never made my own bread before, but it looks fun. 🙂

    @SarahSarah not only is it fun the smell in your kitchen is divine. This recipe is really easy but I always tell my husband I worked so hard.
